Informations about the package backpack-crud-settings
Backpack Settings
Create settings dashboards to your Backpack application.
Instalation:
composer require pxpm/backpack-crud-settings
-
Migrate the settings table:
php artisan db:migratePublish the config file
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Pxpm\BpSettings\BpSettingsServiceProvider" --tag=config
Create a seeder that will seed your settings into database:
php artisan make:seeder SettingsSeeder
IMPORTANT NOTE
This seeder will be the only source of truth for your settings. This is the way you can add/delete/update settings from database.
The above command will generate something like this in your Database\Seeds\ folder by default in Laravel application.
NOTES:
-
After creating your seeder you should
composer dump-autoload - Seed the settings with:
php artisan db:seed --class=SettingsSeeder
Configuration
If you follow all the instalation steps you should now have an bpsettings.php file in your config/ directory. The default config is ready to work out-of-box, but you are free to customize it the way you want.
Creating settings
You can now access your settings panel in:
your_url.com/backpack_admin_prefix/bp-settings
To add settings to your panels like described above you should create an array of Backpack fields and pass them to the Settings Manager.
There are some key points in setting definition that you can use to better organize your setting panels.
namespace
By default the settings namespace is null, that means it's a general setting and will appear in the main settings panel. By defining settings namespaces you can create aditional setting panels.
If you setup some settings with namespace => 'users' those settings will be available separately in: your_url.com/backpack_admin_prefix/bp-settings/users
group
Allow you to group settings further inside the panel. You can use tab provided in Backpack with conjunction with group.
validation
You can validate your settings inputs using regular laravel validation.
Define the key validation => 'required|min:5' and we will run your setting input against the laravel validator and return any errors found.
Using settings
- All settings are pushed into config array on run-time. We use cache mechanism to make sure we don't query the database if there are no changes to settings and just grab the cached version.
You can get the values of non namespaced settings with: config('bpsettings.setting_name) or app('settingsmanager)->get('setting_name')
To get namespaced setting value you can do it with: config('bpsettings.namespace.setting_name) or app('settingsmanager)->get('namespace.setting_name')
IMPORTANT NOTE:
This is still a work in progress, i cannot guarantee 100% flawless work.
